As the most widely-recognized female French artist of the 18th century, Elisabeth-Louise Vigée Le Brun’s popularity has propelled in recent years, most notably as the subject of a blockbuster exhibition at the Grand Palais in Paris and The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York in 2016. A precocious and talented artist from a young age, she succeeded in gaining entrance to the Académie de Saint-Luc at just 19 – a remarkable accomplishment for a woman at the time. Most notably, she was the primary painter to Queen Marie Antoinette. It was this special Royal connection that granted Vigée the ability and power to capture the portrait of Muhammad Dervish Khan, a Muslim ambassador from India, which stands today as a symbolic testament to the relationship between Pre-Revolutionary France and India. The life-sized portrait will headline The Female Triumphant – a group of masterworks by trailblazing female artists of the Pre-Modern era, being offered across #SothebysMasters Week auctions. Come see it today in our #NYC galleries before it hits the auction block on 30 January.
